lyrics

It’s Only Life. Music/lyrics: D. Bernal

I’ve been through hell
It’s the only way I know to get to the light
I’ve loved and lost
But you gotta do the wrong before you know the right
If my life’s a song,
I got a whole lot more to learn before it starts to rhyme.
I’ve been bright-eyed and bushy-tailed
And system failed and course derailed
And can still say I’ve have a good time

‘Cause it’s only life
And it’s the only one we got,
So don’t let it go.
Some live & all die
And if we don’t take a shot
We may never know.
And if you’re not standing by my side
At the end of this (lonely) ride
I can’t say I never tried. Cuz it’s only… life.

I’ve heard the “no’s”
And I’m sure there’ll be a hundred more
Before I get a “yes”
For every wrong turn
A man can make I’m sure that I have made it
(doin’ my best)
And every chance a heart can take
And every which way a heart can break
I’m positive I’ve felt it all, I guess.

Let’s do this dance
Let’s take this chance
That we’ll be hand in hand until the end
And if down the line
You change your mind
We’ll both know we did not pretend… my friend.

The days go by
And true love’s waitin there for those who want it
For every lost love
When the heartache’s healed a lesson learned upon it
Though we may get hurt
It’s a chance any potential lover knows
But what we can gain’ll outweigh the loss
It’s worth the pain, at any cost
To both let down our guards and say “here it goes”

about

Just Dave Band Los Angeles, California

Hi, Just Dave here. OK, here's the deal, here at Just Dave Band we don't have 'fans', only friends who like to hear our music. I work hard on stage, I crack jokes, I put my life stories into my tunes, and try to support a family playing and selling my original music. (and I try to keep the guys in my band busy, too!)
#StandbyforGreatness, California Country!
